William and his mother came by this morning so we could have the meeting we scheduled a few weeks ago. We sat down with his file and went over his marks and all of his school work.

She was very pleased at how well he had done on his exams as well as his academic position of 12 out of 102 pupils. She kept saying....William webale ku soma. Thank you for learning. It was really cute and very refreshing. We talked about all of the same issues that were brought up at the Kikoiiro meeting, but it was a bit more difficult because we only had William to translate. My Luganda isn't fluent enough and neither is her English. William did a great job and I don't see him having any fear at all in speaking English. In fact, he hasn't stopped talking all day!

His mother went home and he stuck around to read books and play with my camera.
After William left, I looked through my camera. This was my favorite picture out of all of them that he took today. Mostly, because it's a mystery to me where exactly he took it, but also because it's very artistic.
